1.Explain the meaning of the name, Islam.

This word comes from the Arabic root ‘asalama’.The word Islam is a word when translated means surrender or a form of submission. This word is the name of the religion where Allah (God) is the leader. The word Islam is related to words concerning peace. This word is to fully be translated as submission or surrender to God.among the three braches the meaning is the same across the board.

Islam is an unerringly monotheistic religion. It enjoins the existence of one God, his prophet Muhammad who is the Last Prophet in a long line of prophets sent throughout time and to every civilization, and the Quran as the Word of God revealed to Muhammad through the angel Jibrael. Muslims believe that God is one and incomparable and the purpose of life is to worship him and to adhere to his word, as laid down in the Quran, and in Sunnah , as closely as possible. They believe that Islam is the final, completed and universal version of a faith revealed too many prophets before; most notably Abraham, Moses and Jesus, but whose message has now been distorted.

3.Describe the practices of Islam.

...Islamic Radicalism
As years have passed, Islam has become a major political force in the contemporary world, arguably through means of terrorism and guerilla warfare. The word Islam actually means, “submission” to the will of Allah, “God” which is similar to how terrorists tend to try and submit others by force to follow said will. These terrorists’ objective is to spread Islamic faith and politics by ridding the world of non-believers to ultimately achieve a pure Islamic state worldwide. There are many reasons why they, the terrorists, believe it to be necessary to pursue such radical goals but the one that sticks out the most is the ultimate goal of getting rid of the Nation of Satan or rather the United States of America. Democracy, to them, is a tool of the Devil because the Qur’an states that only Allah can rule mankind, and man should follow accordingly.
History is full of tales of religious radicals using something that should otherwise be seen as beautiful and turning it into a catalyst for revolution so they can make the change they wish upon the world. Hitler did it but his ultimate goal was for his followers to see him as a divine leader and no other was higher than him and of course you can look back to the leader of ancient Persia, Xerxses the Great, and see another time when a leader thought himself to be divine and ruled by fear. Well, in the case of radical Islam there is no defined leader...

ISLAMIC PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION
Q. According to Imam Ghazali’s philosophy of education, what are the categories of knowledge?
A. According to Ghazali’s philosophy, there are four categories of knowledge, namely:
* Prophetic, where prophets convey the message of God without discriminating between the masses and aid in the purification of the soul.
* Rulers, who use their authority, legislation and rules to train and guide the society.
* Philosophers/scholars whose knowledge, though benefitting only a few select individuals, is concerned with benefitting the whole society.
* Preachers who are meant to fulfill the religious requirements of the society and to train the inner and outer self. Their job is to promote knowledge, improve the lives of people and aid them in acquiring desirable ethics through education.
Q. In what ways has Imam Ghazali categorized knowledge?
A. Ghazali divided knowledge into two parts:

Islamic Ancient Traditions: The Six Pillars
From the
Writings of Crystal Medell
Humanities Ms. Melissa Jayne Shelton
University of Central Oklahoma

Islamic Ancient Traditions: The Six Pillars
from the
Writings of Crystal Medell
The religious Islamic traditions of ancient times are still practiced in there entirety except for the sixth pillar which is known as Jihad or the holy war. Islam is the Arabic word for submission to God and the people who practice this religion refer to themselves as Muslims which means one who has submitted to God. The religious beliefs of Islam are from a book written around 610 AD called the Qur’an. Islam was accepted shortly after, sometime around 630 AD. The true meaning of the Qur’an is believed to only be properly accepted in the Arabic language. The Qur’an’s religious traditions come from the six pillars (obligations) of the book. The six pillars are called Shahadah, Salat, Zakat, Sawm, Hajj, and Jihad. Only five are practiced in modern day. (Ahmad, 1995-2011)
We will begin with the first pillar,...

...differentiation involving a workbook and a worksheet?
A workbook is just an Excel file that entered associated data is stored. They are qualified of holding an almost endless numbers of worksheets, which is determined by the size and the significance of the data. It is, really, a book filled with the data from numerous of worksheets. Mostly, workbooks are categorized by the data in which it’s on each worksheet-if every single page of the workbook contains the matching type of data, that workbook will be identified for the related data that it maintains.
Worksheet in Excel is a combination of a number of cells that contains data relating to a particular piece of information. Otherwise, a worksheet is known as a spreadsheet. A user is capable of entering, modifying, and manipulating the data that is inserted in the spreadsheet. With a worksheet, a user is basically putting information onto a page of a workbook.
Q. Why would you want to use separate worksheets when using Excel?
You should use several worksheets when creating spreadsheets for more than a few related groups of information. Never use several worksheets if your spreadsheets are not interrelated- make a new as a replacement. Never use the numerous worksheets with the “what if” situations to make the same group of information (perhaps worst case, best...

...﻿TAKAFUL
Takaful is a co-operative system of reimbursement in case of loss, paid to people and companies concerned about hazards, compensated out of a fund to which they agree to donate small regular contributions managed on behalf by a Takaful Operator. It is defined as an Islamic insurance concept which is grounded in Islamic muamalat (Islamic banking), observing the rules and regulations of Islamic law. This concept has been practised in various forms since 622 CE. Muslim jurists acknowledge that the basis of shared responsibility (in the system of aquila as practised between Muslims of Mecca and Medina) laid the foundation of mutual insurance.
Islamic references
These fundamentals are based on the sayings of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Based on the hadith and Qur'anic verses mentioned below, Islamic scholars have decided that there should be a concerted effort to implement the concept of takaful as the best way to resolve these needs. Some examples are:
Basis of Co-operation: Help one another in al-Birr and in al-Taqwa (virtue, righteousness and piety), but do not help one another in sin and transgression. (Surah Al-Maidah, Verse 2)[Quran 5:2]
God will always help his servant for as long as he helps others.
Basis of Responsibility: The place of relationships and feelings of people with faith, between each other, is just like the body; when one of its parts is...
